[QUOTE="Fudged Undies, post: 784574, member: 57548"] Caymen, that's info I read sometime in the past year and a half. I commented on it in a previous, similar thread. Keep in mind, HD is being provided by the same folks that produce regular radio at a cost of roughly $100k to upgrade and be able to trasmit. Do you really think they will continue to do it for "free?" Not sure what the revenue model for HD is(I read advertising currenly isn't permitted) but either your going to pay or it will become just as bogged down with commercials as regular radio currently is, there will have to be profit somewhere. Moreover, there must be some overhead in HD radioHow much commercial time is involved in standard hour of "regular" radio these days? There's a reason people have begun paying for satellite radio. Special programming is part of it, but so is lack of constant interruptions from garbage commercials. Yes, stations have [/QUOTE]
